Change All Parts of an Assembly to Local
General
- You can change assembly parts from the main level or recursively into local parts.
Note that especially when choosing recursive conversion to local, you can also ruin the assemblies in the substructures, because the operation cannot be undone later.
- To avoid this problem, it is recommended to save the assembly and all its subassemblies as new parts before this operation.
- The optionally available subprogram helps with this. You can find more information here:
> Project Management Tools.
- You can undo the conversion to local parts with the
Undo function or the shortcut key Ctrl+Z when you do it immediately after the conversion to local parts.
Convert Parts to Local
- Select the main assembly symbol
from the feature tree.
- Select the context-sensitive function Other Functions> Change Links to Local.
- The program opens the dialog box Change Links to Local.
- Select the level.
- Change on 1st level: Only parts and subassemblies of the main assembly are changed to local ones.
- Change on all levels: All parts and subassemblies are recursively changed to local.
- Use this option only after careful consideration.
- Select OK.
Note: If you did this unintentionally, use the
Undo function or Ctrl+Z to cancel the change.
